Cosmetic ingredient: pore-tightening material derived from seaweed from the Brittany region.
Purifying "Marine Jewel" Pearl Arga TM - Pore tightening effect, improvement of skin smoothness, sebum control.
Pearl Alga is a fraction of fluorotannins and other components extracted from Sargassum muticum, a brown alga known as pearl algae. The coastal waters of Brittany, France, where pearl algae inhabit, have a high probability of organisms attaching to and parasitizing seaweeds due to the presence of many estuaries, making it a sea with a much higher likelihood of such occurrences compared to the open ocean. However, Odycea discovered that pearl algae are not affected by this phenomenon. The reason is that this alga produces unique substances that have convergent, antibacterial, and antifungal properties. These substances include high concentrations of gallic acid (an average of 3 mg/100 g) and fluorotannins. As a result, the surface of pearl algae remains clean and free from parasitic organisms. Due to the effects of these substances, Pearl Alga can purify the skin and provide excellent benefits for skin care, including pore care, suppression of sebum secretion, and reduction of shine. - Efficacy - - Reduction in pore density, diameter, and surface area - Improvement in skin smoothness - Suppression of sebum secretion - Reduction of shine
